Here’s to more of the same in 2013.

I agree, we need to pay more attention to #5 in the future. Time to include systems thinking in polsci curriculums? Saying “we really should’ve seen this coming” is a bit too late when you play the role of the pig rather than the chook in the bacon and egg sandwich.

I wish you and your close ones a very Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy and bright New Year.

See you in the gym in January,
Chirality.

P.S. here’s hoping 2013 will bring your expertise to the likes of Coursera.org or similar tie up, like Edx.org? hint, hint…
